The hope of 600 Nigerians hoping to watch yesterday’s World Cup match between the Super Eagles and Argentina was dashed when wakanow.com, official travel partners to the Nigeria Football Federation, (NFF) failed to transport them to Porto Alegre, venue of the match.
Wakanow had promised to move the fans from Sao Paulo to Porto Alegre yesterday morning, in time for the kick-off, but the promise went unkept.
“Most of us left Nigeria, believing that we were going to Porto Alegre. We were surprised to be brought to Sao Paulo. Many had are alleging that this has all the tell tale signs of a scam,” said a bitterly disappointed fan. The disappointment was heightened by a lack of information from Wakanow which, only at the last minute, got tickets for about 50 people to go to Porto Alegre, leaving others stranded.
Major companies like MTN, Naija Bet , DStv, 360 Bet and Tecno, which sponsored promo winners and customers to watch the World Cup were left bemoaning their fate
